[Verse 1]
G
We're a million volts in a pool of light
C
Electricity in the room tonight
Em
Born from fire
D C
Sparks flying from the sun
G
Yeah, I hardly know you, can I confess
C
I feel your heart beatin' in my chest
Em
If you come with me
D C
Tonight is gonna be the one
[Pre-Chorus]
G
'Cause you're faith in no fear for the fight
C
You pull hope from defeat in the night
Em D
There's an image of you in my mind
C
Could be mad but you might just be right
[Chorus]
G
We are the people we've been waiting for
C
Out of the ruins of hate and war
Em D
Army of lovers never seen before
C
We are the people we've been waiting for
G
We are the people of the open hand
C
The streets of Dublin to Notre Dame
Em D
We'll build it better than we did before
C
We are the people we've been waiting for

Broken bells and a broken church
C
Heart that hurts is a heart that works
Em
From a broken place
D C
That's where the victories won
[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause you're faith in no fear for the fight

Could be mad but you might just be right
